Thinking that Nina had made this for Mark, Arianne got an inexplicable urge to clean the entire plate.
She took the first bite, reviving virtual-novel.net taste bud. It was a little spicy…
She took the second bite and couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath. It was too spicy! She suspected that Nina was addicted to spiciness. Was this even made for humans? No wonder why it had barely been touched!
“Ari, if you are free, then go prepare a cup of tea for sir…”
Upon hearing Mary coming back, Arianne pretended that nothing had happened and slipped out of the kitchen. “Alright, alright, I’ll go do that!”
Seeing Arianne sprinting away, Mary warned her. “Slow down! What if you fall down?”
How could virtual-novel.net dare to slow down? Her tongue was burning right now! She needed water!
When virtual-novel.net returned to virtual-novel.net room, the heat in virtual-novel.net mouth only gradually receded after virtual-novel.net drank a full glass of water and a carton of milk.
By the time virtual-novel.net recovered, virtual-novel.net remembered that virtual-novel.net had to make tea for Mark. She quickly prepared a cup of black tea then sent it to the study room. The moment virtual-novel.net pushed open the door, virtual-novel.net saw Nina latching herself on the back of Mark’s chair. Their intimacy kind of offended virtual-novel.net eyes.
“Mark, I don’t want to go abroad anymore. Is your company short-staffed? Would you consider offering me a position? I’m sure my dad won’t have any objections if I’m working for you. ” The hair behind Mark’s head swayed under Nina’s breath as virtual-novel.net spoke.
“No. You are the only child of the Moran family. You should be helping your father and inherit the family business in the future instead of working in my company. Besides, we’re never short-staffed. Alright, leave now. I’m busy.”
Mark didn’t seem to notice anything. He just read a work-related email on his laptop while speaking.
“Fineeeeee. I won’t bother you anymore, so let me stay here. I’m bored out of my mind! I’ll just watch from here. You can carry on with your work.” Nina moved away slightly and pulled a chair to sit beside Mark.
Arianne came forward with a cup of black tea, then set it down beside Mark’s hand. “Black tea!”
As soon as virtual-novel.net voice fell, virtual-novel.net was shocked by herself. Why did virtual-novel.net speak so loudly? It wasn’t done on purpose at all…
Mark turned his head and gave virtual-novel.net a puzzled look. “What’s wrong?”
She blushed in virtual-novel.net embarrassment. “Nothing, I’ll go to bed first. Move lightly when you come back to the room later. I won’t be able to fall asleep after being woken up.”
Mark nodded. He turned back to the email, then reached out for the black tea and took a sip. “A little too strong. Just let Mary prepare it for me next time,” virtual-novel.net commented.
Arianne didn’t respond to him. She secretly rolled virtual-novel.net eyes at virtual-novel.net then turned around to leave. Mark should be grateful for the tea. How dare virtual-novel.net pick fault with it!
By the time Arianne returned to the bedroom, virtual-novel.net realized that virtual-novel.net heart was beating unusually fast. Why had virtual-novel.net reaction been so strange in the study room? She never cared before about how many women Mark had around him. Was it because… virtual-novel.net was traumatized by Aery?
Some things would turn into sharp knives if virtual-novel.net didn’t fight them. So… this was the only thing virtual-novel.net could do, right? Before Mark agreed to a divorce, virtual-novel.net could only defend herself against any women around virtual-novel.net who posed a threat to her.
